Goodbye, Tom Brady: Top 20 Moments Of QB’s 20-Year Tenure With Patriots

Tom Brady’s two-decade run with the New England Patriots was unlike anything we’ve ever seen.

Brady, a sixth-round pick in the 2000 NFL Draft, led New England to six Super Bowl titles, while also racking up 14 Pro Bowl selections and three MVP awards. He’s the greatest quarterback in league history, no matter how you slice it, and Patriots fans won’t soon forget his contributions.

Brady’s tenure with the Patriots officially ended when the veteran QB signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in free agency. But rather than cry because it’s over, let’s smile because it happened.
